What the job includes
- Moisture-resistant boarding and tanking around the bath and shower before any tiling
- Lights, extractor fan and towel rail wired by a qualified electrician, tested and certified
- Supply of the bath, basin, WC, brassware, shower, screen, tiles and heated towel rail
- Wall and floor tiling, with a floor finish chosen to grip under wet feet
Decisions to make first
Shower over the bath or separate
A shower over the bath with a fixed or hinged screen is the most space-efficient. A separate enclosure needs roughly another square metre of floor but means the bath queue no longer holds up the shower queue.
Bath material
Reinforced acrylic is warm to the touch and light on the floor. Steel enamel is harder-wearing and feels more solid, but it draws heat from the water faster.
Rules that apply in England
In England, any new circuit, or any change to the wiring in a room with a bath or shower, is notifiable under Part P. Part G limits the hot water at a new bath to 48 °C only in a new dwelling or one created by change of use; it does not apply to a replacement bath in an existing house, but a thermostatic valve is a sensible choice where children bathe.
